Eyeballs make me cringe. Seriously. I can sometimes just imagine getting poked in the eye or something crazy happening to my eyes and I almost throw up. True story.

Because of this, lining the waterline and tightlining were always something I stayed away from up until a couple years ago. It just seemed dangerous, unnecessary, and gross.

I'm so glad I gave it a shot, practiced, and have discovered some great fool-proof products over the past few years because I absolutely love the results.
So to show you what "tightlining" and lining the waterline really mean, and how to get great results, I figured I'd make a handy dandy little video tutorial.

...One that didn't make it seem dangerous, unnecessary, and gross.
Because I still cringe whenever I see someone else do it.

If you have sensitive eyes and want to try this technique, make sure you stick to the tips I give in the video and choose safe products that are safe for use in that area. Also, maybe just skip the waterline and start with tightlining.
Check out the video below for a description of both and a tutorial/demonstration of these lining techniques.

Hi, first comment here ! I really learn a lot from all your videos, thank you !!!

I've been searching for a long long time for a trick to line the upper waterline without doing the lower one (because as you know and say, that makes the eye smaller). What I do on the upper waterline always instantly transfers to the lower waterline.Is there a trick or a particular type of product (I use gel liner) that would work for that ???

HI Tiffany thanks for a grreat tip. Can you please do a video about your kit that you use when you do other ppls make up. I am just starting out so any tips that you can give me would really help. Thank you so much, irina

I love all of your videos and tips! I'm getting married in a month and will be doing my own makeup for my wedding. Is there any way you could do an updated simple bridal makeup tutorial for a bride doing their own makeup? I would love any tips you have to offer! I've also gotten turned on to using the Temptu airbrush makeup system from Sephora and I love it! Would love to see you do a review/tutorial with that as well! Great blog!

Tiffany, I was just introduced to your you tube site and I love your videos. Besides the beautiful make up that you do and all the great info you share you have amazing style. Have you ever thought about a fashion blog? I know you sometimes share outfit of the day but would love to follow a fashion blog by you that is just dedicated to that.
